The books on the shelves are all magic books from the Western world, such as "Night and Day", "Alice in Wonderland", etc., plus ancient hieroglyphs, Shen Jiahao can't understand any of them, so he has no choice but to put the bulky books in his hand back on the bookshelf, turn around and turn back in boredom, wanting to see what the old woman and Dongyang are doing?

But the moment he turned around, a brilliant light rushed up from Toyo's palm, illuminating the entire room.

Radiant and dazzling.

At the source of the light, that is, in the palm of the East, there is a fiery red butterfly emerging, bright red and lifelike, like the big red maple leaf in that late autumn, which is wonderful.

"What a beautiful butterfly!" Toyo was surprised to see the phantom of a butterfly suddenly appearing in his palm.

The old woman nodded and smiled slightly: "Yes, Yangyang, it was originally your spiritual object, and it was called Fire Butterfly." ”

"Fire Butterfly?"

"Hmm. The old woman nodded, recalled the past and said: "It was a long, long time ago, it was the snow year of Canglan Palace, and the heavy snow fell for several years, one day, the palace master stood on the balcony and jumped into the distance, the heaven and the earth were covered in silver, thousands of miles of ice, there was no different color within tens of thousands of miles, and it was all snow. ”

"It must have been spectacular. Toyo interjected.

"yes, it's spectacular. The old woman smiled, as if evoking some kind of memory: "But Yangyang, do you know? For those of us who live in Canglan Palace, we are already tired of seeing this magnificence, and the snow is not much fun for us, but that day there was a red snowball, falling from the sky, falling in front of the palace master's eyes, this red between heaven and earth, very distinct, the palace master ran downstairs, curiously picked it up, and then found that a butterfly was frozen in the snowball. ”

"Frozen butterflies?" Toyo said in surprise.

The old woman said, "Yes, at that time, the palace master and I thought it was dead, but at that moment, it winked at us in the ice ball?"

"Blink?" Toyo exclaimed again.

The old woman said, "Well, it was wounded and flew in the snow for three days and three nights, and finally it couldn't hold on, and it was frozen by snowflakes. ”

At this point, the old woman stopped, as if immersed in her own good memories, for a long time, without speaking, Toyo asked, "What happened later?"

The old woman shook her head: "Later, it was saved by the palace master." ”

"Is this the one?" asked Toyo, pointing to the fiery red butterfly in the palm of his right hand.

The old woman stared intently, carefully looking at the red butterfly phantom in Dongyang's hand, her eyes revealed a kind emotion, and at this time, the fiery red butterfly image was rapidly fading, getting fading more and more, and finally quickly dissipated, the old woman raised her head and replied to Dongyang: "Is it or not it?"

Toyo shook his head, indicating that he didn't understand.

But the old woman said mysteriously, "One day you will understand..."

said and urged Toyo to leave.

Dongyang and Shen Jiahao walked out of the stone house.

Outside the house, the sky is wide, the grass is clear, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and there are cicadas singing.

But as soon as Toyo walked out of the stone house, all of a sudden, the butterflies around her flew over and landed on her body.

At this moment, she is like a butterfly fairy, dancing.

At first, Toyo thought it was very funny, but soon she became scared, because no matter where she went, these butterflies followed, and more and more, as if the butterflies in this sky were gathering on her.

She looked at Shen Jiahao beside her in panic, and Shen Jiahao was also at a loss.

At this time, the old woman standing at the stone gate said to Toyo, "Control them with your mind. ”

Toyo immediately tried to do what the old woman said, thinking about letting the butterflies go.

And something miraculous happened, and the butterflies really did as she thought, and left immediately.

Not only that, but she discovers that she can not only let the butterflies go, but also make them fly over.

After the butterfly flew away, the old woman said to Toyo, "Yangyang, don't come here to look for me again in the future." ”

Toyo was puzzled: "Why?"

The old woman said, "I'm leaving here too, and when the time comes, we'll see you again, and I hope you'll remember me then." ”

After saying that, the old woman walked into the stone house and disappeared.

On the way back from the stone house, Toyo tells Shen Jiahao the reason why she and the old woman met.

That was when Toyo was very young, and when he was four years old, Toyo lived in the countryside with his grandparents. That year, Toyo got a serious illness, the whole body was hot and high fever did not go back and had herpes, all the doctors who had seen it were helpless, no one knew the cause of Toyo, and there was no medicine to control her condition, the situation got worse and worse, and finally Toyo fell into a coma, and that day the old woman suddenly came to Toyo's house and said that she could cure Toyo's illness.

The old woman asked Grandma Toyo to take out a bucket of rice from the rice bowl, put it in a gold bowl that she had brought with her, and cover the mouth of the bowl with a red cloth.

Finally, the old woman took the golden bowl covered with a red cloth and began to shake it gently up and down and left and right next to Toyo's forehead and ears, and recited an ancient and mysterious language in her mouth, and after a few minutes, the old woman stopped, put the golden bowl on a flat table, uncovered the red cloth, and then carefully observed the secret of the rice grains inside the golden bowl, and finally told Grandma Toyo: "Southwest, there is a disturbance." ”

The grandmother was puzzled, so the old woman explained: "Cook the rice in the golden bowl, buy three more pieces of yellow paper, walk 300 meters southwest at 6:53 p.m., and then worship, and your granddaughter's illness will be cured." ”

In the evening, Grandma Toyo did as the old woman said, and the next morning, Toyo's strange illness turned out to be really cured.

After listening to Dongyang's story, Shen Jiahao felt a little superstitious, he was a new young man in the 21st century, and he naturally didn't believe in superstition, but many things in the world are not superstitious I don't believe in it can be said clearly.

He clearly remembers that when he was six years old, he went back to live at his grandfather's house in the countryside, and one night, he fell asleep in the hall, and woke up late at night, but he saw his grandfather open the door and go out, and the moonlight sprinkled on his grandfather's face, which was very bright, and his grandfather smiled at him, but when he returned to his grandfather's room, he found that his grandfather was sleeping in bed.

He didn't tell his grandfather about it, but a week later, when his grandfather was passing by a telephone pole, the wire suddenly broke and fell on his grandfather, electrocuting him to death.

Returning from the stone house, in the evening, the group sat together again and chatted.

Lin Xiaoxiao asked, "Uncle Dong, you and Aunt Zhu Zhu have such a good relationship, tell me about the love story between you." ”

Dong Renming smiled, looked at Zhu Zhu beside him, took her hand, and said affectionately: "That year, I was eighteen and she was eighteen, and the time was just right, just because I looked at your Aunt Zhu Zhu one more time in the crowd, and then I couldn't forget it." ”

Speaking of emotion, Dong Renming and Zhu Zhu looked at each other affectionately, with their greasy eyes, as if they were afraid that the other party would run away, you and I are not at all pressed by the current young couple to show affection.

Shen Jiahao and others were forced to eat a wave of dog food. really responds to that grotesque saying, these years I don't envy the old people who hug and kiss each other on the first street, but only appreciate the little couples who walk on the street holding hands and doing nothing.

To be honest, although what Dong Renming said was very romantic and touching, Shen Jiahao felt a suspicion of bragging, because he knew that Dong Renming, an uncle, was a strict wife and could go there in style.

Seeing that Dong Renming suddenly stopped saying that there was no follow-up, Lin Xiaoxiao immediately asked, "Then what?"

Dong Renming turned to look at Lin Xiaoxiao, and said solemnly: "Then I will bombard your Aunt Zhu Zhu indiscriminately, and I will chase after you!"

Hearing Dong Renming's domineering words, Xie Li on the side was envious, and sighed: "It's so romantic, uncle, you and your aunt are love at first sight!"

At this time, Zhu Zhu took his hand out of Dong Renming's hand, and then said to Lin Xiaoxiao and the others: "What love at first sight, don't listen to your Uncle Dong's nonsense." ”

Everyone was surprised, thinking to themselves, isn't it true that they had just heard Dong Renming say about the glorious past? Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask Zhu Zhu, "Isn't what Uncle Dong said wrong?"

Zhu Zhu shook her head, it was just a small action, but it made her kind of upright, steady and virtuous lady temperament at a glance, and she said lightly: "Where is love at first sight, your uncle and I are alumni of the university." ”

"Alumni?"

"Hmm!" Zhu Zhu continued: "I met your uncle Dong at a class party, and I was attracted by his singing, so I began to pay attention to him. ”

"Singing? So, Uncle Dong's singing must be very good. Lin Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

Dong Renming took over the conversation and said smugly: "That's it, when I was in college, I also won the best singer on campus, to put it mildly, there were many girls who had a crush on me at that time, but in the end it was succeeded by your Aunt Zhuzhu." ”

Zhu Zhu turned around and glared at Dong Renming: "Come on, if it weren't for that night, you gave me your coat to wear, you thought I would like you." ”

"What's the matter with the coat?" asked Toyo, who knew that her parents were from the same university, but she really didn't know about their love history, which piqued Toyo's curiosity.

Zhu Zhu said: "It was still the night of the sorority party, when I wore a skirt to perform the show, the night of late autumn, the temperature changed greatly during the day and night, and after the show, I was a little cold, and then your father gave me a coat." ”

"What a gentleman, just like in the TV series. ”

Zhu Zhu said: "It's a gentleman, but this is not what moved me, what moved me was that after he took off his coat, he was wearing a torn shirt, you know, there were many people looking at him at that time, he was for me, he can put down his face, not afraid of making a fool, I am still quite moved." ”

Toyo was also moved when he heard it, he didn't expect his father to have such a manly side, and then Toyo said, "Later, you and your dad walked together?"

Zhu Zhu said: "No, although after that day, we became friends, but they were just ordinary friends, your father was timid and didn't dare to pursue me, until one day, he got kidney stones..."

At this time, Dong Renming interjected: "Yes, the luckiest thing in my life is that I had a kidney stone, and then I made up my mind to pursue your mother, and let me succeed." ”

"Kidney stones, what's going on?" Mom!" asked Toyo.

"Yes, what's the matter with kidney stones? Lin Xiaoxiao also wanted to know.

Zhu Zhu smiled: "It was a winter night, your father and I, reading books in the library, looking at it, your father suddenly had a severe stomach pain, pale, and cold sweat on his head, I felt that the situation was not good at first glance, and then I accompanied your father to the hospital to see a doctor, and the result was a kidney stone, I helped him register to get medicine and buy water, and I was busy and took care of him for a night." ”

"And then you fell in love?" asked Toyo.

Zhu Zhu said: "Almost, after he got well, he suddenly relied on me, saying that in order to thank me, he wanted to invite me to dinner, and blamed me for being delicious at that time, you know, we were poor at that time, we didn't eat anything delicious, and after a few meals, we were deceived by your father in a daze..."
